"I am a person who bounces back. I bounce back easily and quickly."

"Everything I do well shows me that there are many more things I can learn to do well."

"I will automatically learn from someone who has a positive quality and pattern."

"Every person I ever saw, met, and read about can serve as a positive role model in some way. I can speak in the positive ways that anyone else has ever spoken. I can do the positive things that anyone else has ever done."

"I will see the positive in other people, and will say and do what I can to build their self-image."

"I will catch people doing things right and I will enjoy giving positive feedback."

"My memory is getting better and better all the time."

"Every positive thing I have seen, read, and heard is stored in my brain and my brain is always with me."

"Every situation and occurrence will help me develop my character."

"Each day of my life will be a meaningful day for me."

"I continuously strive to keep improving and developing myself."

"I am always in the present. That means that as I read this I am in the present. I presently resolve to keep increasing my level of happiness and joy; my level of being calm, relaxed, and serene; my level of being self-confident and having courage; and my level of being kind and compassionate."

"I feel wonderful and terrific; good and great! I feel wonderful and terrific; good and great!"
